CFS Carp Almonte Detachment
The Almonte Detachment was a military-operated radio communications receiver station linked by land line to CFS Carp located in Burnt Lands Alvar off Lanark County Road 49 East of Almonte, Ontario. A second antenna receiver site was located further east near Dunrobin, Ontario; the Dunrobin Detachment. Both of these sites were linked to CFS Carp Richardson Detachment, which was a remote-operated transmitting site. CFS Carp Almonte Detachment was unmanned and the location primarily used as a remote antenna farm. After the end of the Cold War, CFS Carp was decommissioned and the antenna site was no longer needed.
